O'Hare Airport UFO Sighting -- UPDATE: Photos & Analysis

okay, lets think about that statement for a moment (assuming for a minute that it was an alien craft). these beings are smart enough to build
a machine that will take them thousands of light years. they would be smart enough to do their homework about a species such as ours before coming
down among us, so they would know if radar negatively effected their equipment.

so if radar effects their ship, why in the world would they intentionally fly into an area of heavily concentrated radar?

I just wanted to say that after watching ,"Return of the Nephilim", Chuck Missler was giving a breif lecture about UFOs. And there is a true account
in which these UFOs were visiting the Washington Airport. The radar got it and people saw it too. The thing is, it kept on happening again and again.
I talked to my friends grandma yesterday and I asked her if she heard about the UFO sighting. She said.

"Oh yeah, I told you about the time when my sister saw that UFO outside our house. They're out there, I'm telling ya."

It is exciting, I'm hoping we'll have a mass invasion lol. Just so that people will believe it finally. And I know it's going to happen because
first of all it has to, and second, everyone can feel something is coming. Something huge. But feelings can be misinterpreted here. I'm just saying
what I think.

Remember, you're talking about the radar in the 1940's and 1950's. One could only assume that Aliens "live and learn" just like us, and maybe
made a change or two to their systems so they didn't crash every tour to the earth.

very good point. again, assuming that this was an alien craft (and thats a pretty big assumption), they would certainly have learned and adapted over
the years.

I anxiously wait for the picture. Hopefully the person who took it isn't saving it so they can haggle a deal. With our luck some coverup agency will
come along, outbid everyone, and place the picture in a nice manilla folder labeled Ohare 2006. That would suck =]

Of course radar systems are changed also through updates so maybe one of those upgrades caught the ufo-nauts by surprise. That would be a BIG surprise
to them to think they are cloaked and invisible then suddenly realize that humans are staring at them. That may be the reason they left so fast they
blasted a hole in the clouds.

Hey, i dunno if this will be of interest to you guys but last night on BBC Radio 5 live's "up all night" program they intervied a guy who witnesed
the event and was told that he was not to talk about it, i dont know the full transcript of the interview, as i fell asleep before it came on (damn
tiredness) this was the info given in the trail for it.

yes and no. the radar beam itself is basically the same as it was when it was originally pioneered in the 1930s. the equipment used to catch that
beam, analyze it, and send it to air traffic systems is quite different though. these days the computers in the systems actually weed out things like
weather, flocks of geese, and other objects that can interfere with the return, and in the case of the weather, puts it on a different channel that we
can display on our scopes to give pilots a real time version of what is out there.

of course there are also doppler radar domes on all major airports as well. i'm not as familiar with doppler, but i understand that it is quite
different from ours as it is designed specifically to look at the weather that is out there.....and when i say weather here, i really mean
precipitation. rain, snow, etc is what is really causing the echos....the beams dont really see the clouds.

and of course you have the radar units in the aircraft. much smaller and less powerful, but they still probe the atmosphere.

sorry so long winded, but to sum up, the radar waves themselves havent really changed, but the amount of radar waves out there has increased
exponentially over the years (especially in large terminal environments like ohare), and that might make quite a bit of difference....if you
believe in the alien craft theory that is.

Just to clarify, the subject of the interview on ufocasebook is not a pilot. He "moves aircraft around the airport...", making him a taxiier, not a
pilot.

Did ufocasebook repeatedly refer to him as a pilot to enhance his cred and make the case seem stronger? Just wonderin'

Seriously, though, this seems to be a good eyewitness case and I do believe some pilots did see the object. Hope that pic turns up!

my understanding is that he was not the only witness, just the only one willing to be interviewed. i, too, was kind of disheartened by the
interviewers continuously calling him a pilot, but that is more of an ignorance issue than anything else. you hear that kind of mistake all the time
on the major networks when they are dealing with things they dont understand....especially during live special report broadcasts. my wife has a
tendency to get annoyed with me because i sit there and pick apart the bad info in their reports.

Not long winded at all. Posts never seem long winded when they are interesting. And I find it very interesting that radar is unchanged after so many
years but its intensity has increased. Interesting that it was possible to improve the quality of radar simply by increasing its sum without any need
to develop a different kind of radar.

Then perhaps the ufos react to the strength of the radar beam in the way that the human body reacts to the strength of an electrical current. Up to a
certain point there is no harm done, but when the critical level is reached...Yeoweee!!

Then again, perhaps this incident had nothing to do with any human-tech effect on the ufo. Maybe this is all part of some alien test to see if human
reactions have changed. The aliens may reveal themselves to large groups of people from time to time to test group reactions to them. They are
probably running many such tests periodically to keep track of any changes in human reactions and capabilities.
